Cradle
Design better proteins

Cradle helps biologists design improved proteins in record time using powerful prediction algorithms and AI design suggestions.
Cradle aims to make programming biology easy by providing biologists the tools to discover, design and optimise enzymes and cell-factories. We are bridge builders who bring together the best of machine learning, synthetic biology, developer tools, and user experience design. Our mission is to enable a world where most of the products around us can be easily made and degraded biologically using a cell-factory instead of (petro-)chemicals, plants or animal agriculture.

Behind the Bootcamp: Meet the IBB26 Coaches
Building an industrial biotech venture takes more than a great scientific idea. It requires the ability to challenge assumptions, make strategic choices, build the right team and turn uncertainty into action. Meet the coaches supporting the nine IBB26 teams along the way.
Meet Aurora Renewable Carbon: turning wood residues into valuable biochemicals
Meet Aurora Renewable Carbon, turning wood residues into renewable sugars and bio-phenolics. By using all three components of wood, Aurora creates multiple valuable chemical feedstocks from a single residual resource.
